Welcome to another Citrus Series between the Miami Marlins and Tampa Bay Rays.
Alright, maybe it’s not quite Mets-Yankees. But there is substance here. The Rays get to have winning seasons, while the Marlins get to win World Championships.
The Rays used to exist to many fans just so a former Yankee could reach 3000 hits, whereas the Marlins currently serve that purpose. Then, of course, the biggest debate of them all:
Which city, Miami or Tampa, is right about the Cuban Sandwich?
Kidding aside though, the Marlins could really use 2017 bragging rights in this one, especially heading into a weekend series against the Mets.
